Xavier Hanin commented on IVY-501:
----------------------------------
I think there a two things to do as a workaround:
- set the changing pattern on your resolver to changingPattern=".*SNAPSHOT"
This will tell Ivy that all revisions ending with SNAPSHOT are considered as
changing revisions, thus Ivy will check if they have changed each time you call
resolve
- add a VersionMatcher inspired by the SubVersionMatcher, except that it
considers revisions ending with 'SNAPSHOT' instead of a '+'
This will tell Ivy to look for revisions with a suffix after the SNAPSHOT. For
this step I'm not really sure if this is necessary or not, since I do not
understand properly how SNAPSHOT versions work in maven: sometimes they have
just the SNAPSHOT keyword, sometimes they have a timestamp I think.
I will ask on the maven list if they can point me to a documentation explaining
exactly how it works.

> Project: Ivy
> Issue Type: Bug
> Environment: jdk 1.5
> Reporter: Jeffrey Blatttman
> Priority: Blocker
>
> ivy cannot resolve maven2 "snapshot" versioning. i am actually unclear
> whether there is some way to configure this to work, but the expectations is
> that if one sets m2compatible="true" for the resolver, that the m2 snapshot
> versioning should just work without any other tweaks.
> i'd be glad to make this a lower priority than blocker if someone can explain
> the manual configuration to make it work (i couldn't figure it out from the
> docs).
